XtractPro is Building the Seating Systems that will Transform India's Sports Infrastructure
India is in the middle of the infrastructure boom. New cricket stadiums are being approved across Kerala, Karnataka, and Andhra Pradesh. Khelo India complexes are coming up in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities. Every school is now expected to have a multi-sport facility. But amid the concrete, the synthetic turfs, and the smart lighting, there is one critical question no one is asking loudly enough: where does India sit? XtractPro Seating has an answer. The India-based manufacturer of telescopic seating systems is building the infrastructure that sits at the intersection of sports, education, and architecture. From school auditoriums in smaller cities to indoor arenas in metros, XtractPro is engineering the seating that turns an empty hall into a venue, a venue into an experience, and an experience into a community. From auditoriums to arenas, XtractPro's seating systems are laying the groundwork for India's sports infrastructure future "India is not just building stadiums. India is building a sporting culture. And this culture needs a place to sit," XtractPro Seating Pvt. Ltd. From assembly hall to arena: the XtractPro transformation The challenge facing India's institutional venues is not space — it is wasted space. A school that builds a fixed-seating auditorium locks that hall into one function. A sports complex that installs permanent bleachers eliminates its own flexibility. An institution pays to build a large space and then uses it at 30% of its potential. XtractPro's retractable seating systems change that equation fundamentally. When the seating is deployed, it is a stadium. When it retracts, it is an event space. On Monday, a school holds its annual day. On Friday, the same hall hosts a district-level badminton tournament. On Saturday, it becomes a convocation hall. No second space. No second investment. The seats that will define india's sporting decade India's ambition to become a global sporting hub — to host international events, to develop Olympic talent, to build communities around sport — will ultimately be realised not just in what gets built, but in how it gets used. Infrastructure that cannot adapt is infrastructure that gets underused. And in a country of India's scale, underused infrastructure is a national cost. XtractPro Seating is making a straightforward bet: that India's institutions will choose smart over static, flexible over fixed, and homegrown over imported. One venue at a time. About XtractPro Seating Pvt. Ltd. XtractPro Seating Pvt. Ltd. is India's premier manufacturer of telescopic seating systems, purpose-built for schools, colleges, sports arenas, auditoriums, and multipurpose institutional venues. With a deep understanding of Indian spatial constraints, regulatory standards, and institutional needs, XtractPro designs and delivers seating infrastructure that transforms single-use halls into high-performance, multi-purpose venues. Rooted in the Atmanirbhar Bharat mission, XtractPro brings world-class engineering to India's fast-growing institutional and sports infrastructure sector.

Drought vs development: Can DK Shivakumar evade the SM Krishna trap?
Karnataka faces a potential drought as monsoon rainfall lags significantly behind normal levels. Chief Minister DK Shivakumar is managing this agrarian crisis, echoing his mentor SM Krishna's past struggles. Krishna's administration faced similar droughts, which opponents used to criticize his urban development focus. Shivakumar now balances Bengaluru's infrastructure growth with rural distress, a familiar political challenge. Modern drought management systems offer some advantage, but rainfall deficits remain a political concern.
J&K GST revenue falls 15% in June as collections slip to Rs 470 Crore
Jammu and Kashmir recorded a 15 per cent year-on-year decline in Goods and Services Tax (GST) collections in June 2026, with revenue falling to Rs 470 crore from Rs 552 crore in the corresponding month last year, according to the latest state-wise GST data released by the Union Finance Ministry. The Union Territory witnessed a decline of Rs 82 crore in GST collections during the month, even as the country's overall GST revenue continued to grow, indicating a mixed trend in tax collections across states and Union Territories. India's gross GST collections stood at Rs 1,34,774 crore in June 2026, compared with Rs 1,26,506 crore collected in June 2025, registering a year-on-year growth of 7 per cent. The increase reflects steady economic activity and improved tax compliance in several parts of the country. Jammu and Kashmir was among the states and Union Territories that reported a decline in GST collections during the month. Neighbouring Himachal Pradesh recorded a steeper fall of 26 per cent, with collections declining from Rs 895 crore to Rs 661 crore, while Uttarakhand registered a 21 per cent decline, collecting Rs 1,334 crore against Rs 1,688 crore in June last year. In contrast, Punjab posted a strong 14 per cent increase in GST revenue to Rs 2,491 crore from Rs 2,186 crore. Haryana recorded collections of Rs 10,065 crore, up 9 per cent, while Delhi reported an 8 per cent increase to Rs 5,987 crore. Chandigarh also registered a 7 per cent rise, collecting Rs 229 crore during the month. Ladakh also witnessed a decline in collections, with GST revenue falling 7 per cent from Rs 28 crore in June 2025 to Rs 26 crore in June 2026. Among the major states, Uttar Pradesh emerged as one of the best performers, recording a 19 per cent increase in GST collections to Rs 9,165 crore. Assam posted a 17 per cent rise to Rs 1,492 crore, Gujarat registered a 12 per cent increase to Rs 11,743 crore, while Karnataka collected Rs 12,937 crore, up 10 per cent over the previous year. Maharashtra, the country's largest contributor to GST revenue, collected Rs 30,714 crore, registering a growth of 9 per cent. On the other hand, Sikkim recorded the steepest decline in the country, with GST collections falling 53 per cent. Puducherry witnessed a 28 pe cent decline, while Jharkhand reported a 16 per cent fall. Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh also recorded declines of 5 per cent each. GST, introduced on July 1, 2017, replaced multiple indirect taxes with a unified tax system and has become one of the most important sources of revenue for both the Centre and the states. Monthly GST collections are considered a key indicator of economic activity, consumption and tax compliance. Experts note that monthly GST revenues can fluctuate due to factors such as seasonal business cycles, the timing of tax payments, refunds and compliance-related adjustments. Therefore, a decline in a single month does not necessarily indicate a broader slowdown in economic activity, though sustained weakness over several months could warrant closer attention. The latest figures show that while national GST collections remain on a growth trajectory, Jammu and Kashmir's revenue performance lagged behind the national average in June. The coming months will indicate whether the decline was temporary or reflects a broader trend in economic activity and tax mobilisation in the Union Territory.

Children's Screen Use and Why Balance Matters
CONNECTED CHILDHOOD Digital technology is now a part of everyday life in Kashmir. Children and teenagers use phones, tablets and computers to study, learn new skills, access information, communicate with family and friends, and use a wide range of digital resources. It has become an important part of homes, schools and everyday life across the Valley, and children are growing up in a world where digital devices are a normal part of daily life. Screens help children study, learn new skills, stay connected with family and friends, and find information quickly. They also allow students across Kashmir to attend online classes, prepare for examinations and explore educational resources from almost anywhere. However, they have also raised an important question for parents, teachers and health experts: Are children spending too much time on screens? Science suggests that the answer is not as simple as yes or no. Children today spend more time on digital devices than any previous generation. According to Common Sense Media, screen use rises steadily with age and increased sharply during the COVID-19 pandemic as education and daily life moved online. But experts say the number of hours alone does not tell the whole story. What children watch, why they use screens and what screen time replaces are equally important. Leading international organizations now emphasize not only how long children use screens but also how they use them. The World Health Organization (WHO), UNICEF and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) all stress the importance of healthy routines, balanced technology use and positive online experiences. The World Health Organization advises avoiding sedentary screen time for children younger than two years and limiting screen time for leisure to no more than one hour a day for children aged two to four. Scientists also say the early years are especially important because most brain development happens before the age of five. During this period, children learn best through conversation, play, reading and time with parents and caregivers. A major review published in the journal Children examined findings from 43 studies involving children and adolescents. It found that excessive screen time for leisure was linked with poor sleep, obesity, anxiety, depression, unhealthy eating habits, eye strain, lower physical activity, attention difficulties and lower academic performance. Importantly, the researchers stressed that more high-quality research is needed to better understand direct cause and effect. The research comes from some of the world's leading universities and research centres. The 2025 meta-analysis published in Psychological Bulletin involved researchers from institutions including the University of Queensland, Australian Catholic University, the University of Helsinki, the University of Otago and La Trobe University. Their findings suggest that the relationship between screen use and children's wellbeing is complex rather than one-dimensional, with family life, sleep, physical activity and emotional health all playing important roles. Other leading institutions have reached similar conclusions. Researchers at Stanford University, the University of Oxford, Bath Spa University and the American Psychological Association say the quality of screen use, family support and healthy routines often matter more than simply counting hours. They also note that many studies rely on self-reported screen time, making it difficult to establish direct cause and effect. Technology has opened new opportunities for students across the Valley. Children can attend online classes, prepare for examinations, access digital libraries and explore educational resources. Smartphones have become important tools for learning and communication. However, parents and teachers across Kashmir often notice changes in children's daily routines. Some children spend less time playing outdoors. Some remain awake late using digital devices, making it more difficult to wake up on time, stay active and concentrate during school hours. These concerns deserve attention, but they should be addressed with balance rather than fear. Experts now encourage families to ask simple questions. Is screen time replacing sleep? Is it reducing physical activity? Is it affecting studies or family time? Does it leave children feeling stressed or unhappy? Or is it helping them learn, create and communicate? The quality of screen time often matters more than the number of hours. Watching an educational programme with parents, attending an online class or learning a new skill are meaningful uses of technology. This is very different from spending long hours scrolling without a clear purpose. Parents can also help children build healthy habits. Family meals can be a time for conversation instead of phones. Bedrooms should remain free from screens at night, while reading, storytelling and outdoor play should remain part of childhood. Children also need to learn how to use technology wisely by checking information carefully, protecting personal information, staying safe online and using digital tools responsibly. Schools across Jammu and Kashmir can support this by teaching online safety, responsible use of technology and critical thinking. Around the world, Australia and the United Kingdom have introduced measures to strengthen children's online safety. Across the country, states including Karnataka and Delhi have also issued guidance to schools and families on healthy technology use and online safety. Together, these efforts reflect a shared commitment to helping children benefit from technology while supporting their overall wellbeing and development. Kashmir has always valued education, strong family relationships and community life. These values provide a strong foundation for helping children develop healthy technology habits while making the most of the opportunities that technology offers. Technology is now part of modern life. The goal is not to keep children away from screens completely but to ensure that technology supports learning and growth without replacing sleep, play, exercise, family time and real-life friendships. The children of Kashmir deserve the best of both worlds. They should grow up confident in using technology for learning and opportunity while also enjoying the simple experiences that make childhood special, playing outdoors, reading books, sharing meals with family and spending time with the people who matter most. A healthy childhood is not defined by the absence of screens, but by the presence of balance. When used wisely, technology can support learning, communication and opportunity while leaving enough room for play, family, friendships and the everyday experiences that help children grow.
